Royal Porthcawl

This is probably the finest course in Wales with very little between Royal St. David’s to the north. A true test of links with hints of heathland that’s set overlooking the ocean enabling you to see the sea from hole. Breath taking sights abound with views across the Bristol Channel to Somerset, Swansea Bay and the Gower peninsula.

It rightly deserves to be categorised as one of the greatest championship links in the British Isles and only for lack of space would it be an Open venue for sure.

Host to the 1995 Walker Cup, the Amateur Championship, Curtis Cup and many more.
